DotGNU is a decommissioned[1] part of the GNU Project that started in January 2001 and aimed to provide a free software replacement for Microsoft's .NET Framework. The DotGNU project was run by the Free Software Foundation. Other goals of the project are better support for non-Windows platforms and support for more processors.
The main goal of the DotGNU project code base was to provide a class library that is 100% Common Language Specification (CLS) compliant.
- ^ "DotGNU Project".
As of December 2012, the DotGNU project has been decommissioned, until and unless a substantial new volunteer effort arises. The exception is the libjit component, which is now a separate libjit package.
